I have a chance to get Duvet Duramectin horse paste. Is that the same stuff as Duvet Ivermectin horse paste?

Take a look at this website page from Chewy.com. There are two Durvet Ivermectin pastes on it. Both list the ingredients as 1.87% Ivermectin.
You didn't leave the link, but I went over there and looked for the durvet ivermectin. There were 3 results. None of them listed the ingredients. There is one that has only the 1.87% ivermectin as the main 'active' ingredient and there is another type that has the 1.87% ivermectin AND something else. It might be that one with the pyronantel or whatever it's called. It would be better to look at the box or to find a site that shows the box and you can read the ingredients.
Oops! I copied it, but I guess I forgot to paste it. Okay, I confess, I ate the paste. :-P

I narrowed it down to just the two -- they're at the top of the page (Durvet Ivermectin and Durvet Duramectin). Both list only 1.87% ivermectin.
You have to click on the item, then once you are there, there's a tab you click for the ingredients.
Chewy is, but did you try valleyvet.com?
Yeah, I don't know. It appears to be the same quanitity, so not sure about the difference OR the price difference. I know a pharmacist pede here said that most of the other ingredients were inert, except for the one that had both the ivermectin and the other active ingredient I can't remember the name of. I know I wouldn't trust a website to get all the info correct, so if nothing else, I'd check around (like on amazon) for the same thing but with a close up of the box label with ingredients.
At any rate, I don't think you're dead so you probably took the right one. If you have any concerns though, and if you still have the box, check for the active ingredients. I hope you got it right and it's working.
I haven't tried it yet. I've been looking for it for awhile, but everyone had been out of it. A pede on the board said you could get it at valleyvet.com, so I ordered a couple when I had the chance. I should get it in the mail tomorrow.
I don't need it right away. I just wanted to have some on hand, just in case.
